Alejandro was very informative and passionate about sharing all he knew. He explained all the history, which grapes they use and why and how this spirit of Peru has become so well known. He was friendly and we had an opportunity to make or own cocktails after a demonstration.

An outstanding tasting experience.

Robert_C, Jun 2026

Our host Christina was really special. There was a small scheduling issue with Viator, but Christina game my daughter and me a private tasting experience. She was very knowledgeable and adept. I'm a fairly confident home bar-tender, but pretty ignorant about the varieties of pisco. Not only did we learn a lot, but our host was gracious enough to entertain my suggestions. There was a large collection of pisco infusions to use in our drinks and we took advantage. Highly recommended.

Really fun evening...

Really fun evening learning about and tasting different types of Pisco. Then you get to mix your own cocktails from a variety of ingredients

We thoroughly enjoyed the Pisco tasting experience with Jose. He entertained and educated while the time melted away.

A must if you’re in Cusco

Our host was very knowledgeable and passionate about local food and drinks. His passion made an enjoyable experience, extraordinary. My husband and I enjoy whiskey, so we found pisco tasting a very enjoyable. Highly recommend this experience for anyone who enjoys a good drink.

Everyone should go!

José was wonderful! He had a thorough knowledge of pisco including its history, aging process and appropriate ways to assess the type of pisco you were drinking. The cocktails were mouthwatering and we had so much fun making our own after his demonstration. The atmosphere was perfect for learning and creating cocktails!
